🛠️ Enhance auto-release workflow with improved variable handling

• 🔒 Added quotes to prevent potential issues with special characters in variables
• 🔄 Updated release creation step to use `softprops/action-gh-release@v1`
• 🐛 Fixed `release_id` reference in `updateRelease` function
• 💡 Improved code readability with consistent string interpolation
• 📦 Prepared structure for including files in the release (commented out for now)

These changes enhance the reliability and flexibility of the auto-release workflow, ensuring better handling of variables and providing a more robust release creation process.
